Qin Fan didn't know who this old man was, but in short, his face looked quite charitable. Plus the staff treated him with courtesy, and he should not be an ordinary person.

In fact, the old man's name is Liu Zongqin, and he is a royal minister in the main city of Cangxiao.

Liu Zongqin was not a cultivator at all, because he did not have any cultivation on him. However, at the first glance at Qin Fan, he felt quite kind.

That's why after asking the reason for the matter, I decided to help Qin Fan sign up in person.

The staff thought that the young man in front of him knew Master Liu, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly shook his head and said respectfully: "Dare to ...... Dare to ask what Shaoxia's full name is? ”

Qin Fan directly said his name, and then bowed deeply to the old man in front of him.

He knew that if it weren't for the old man in front of him, he might not be able to sign up again.

It's just that he's curious, why does the other party want to help him?

Liu Zongqin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Young man, you have a relationship with the old man. So this afternoon's elite ring, don't let the old man down. ”

After saying that, Liu Zongqin got into the carriage that had been prepared next to him and left directly.

In fact, the reason why he said such a sentence before leaving was because the list of elite rings in the afternoon was actually divided into two categories.

The first category is the ordinary young monks who come to sign up, and will be arranged to the play-in stage.

The play-in competition is mixed, with countless weak and strong ones. Trying to break out is undoubtedly hellish difficulty.

As for the second category, there are young disciples introduced by the ministers of the royal family or major sects.

Young people in this category do not need to participate in the play-in competition, and they can compete with the disciples who stand out in the play-in competition.

There is no doubt that the second category of competitors is born with a great advantage.

The key staff automatically classified Qin Fan's name under the name of Liu Zongqin.

Until Qin Fan left, he was quite surprised and said to his companions: "I remember that Lord Liu has never been involved in high-level disputes, and this year he actually has his old man's name. ”

"Lord Liu has been incorruptible all his life, how can he participate in the infighting at the top? Maybe the young man just now really came with his old man. ”

"Perhaps. After all, there are at least three contestants under the command of other royal ministers, and this Qin Fan is the only one under the command of Lord Liu......

Qin Fan had already returned to the inn after registering his name, and chose a moment of rest and recuperation.

Although he is not afraid of the elite ring competition that he will participate in in the afternoon. But when you finally return to the spirit world, it's best not to be too high-profile.

Otherwise, if you are targeted by the people of the three major imperial clans in advance, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The time quickly came to half past two in the afternoon.

Qin Fan opened his eyes, got out of bed and walked directly towards the door.

As soon as I got out of the inn, I saw a large number of people rushing in the same direction. And most of them are high-ranking officials and aristocrats dressed in gorgeous clothes.

Among them, there were also many old men who looked like fairy wind bones, and several young people in white robes were in charge of opening the way in front.

I think it should be the sectarian forces who have settled in the Cangxiao camp and took the initiative to come to watch the ring competition.

Compared with the high-ranking officials and nobles, when many high-level leaders of the Xiuzhen sect appeared. People's eyes twinkle with piety and admiration.

After all, in the eyes of many Li people, cultivators are immortals.

Seeing more and more people heading to the Imperial City, Qin Fan was worried that there would be crowding in the middle, so he sped up.

Until we arrived at the gate of the Imperial City, it was already 2:59 a.m.

Seeing that he was almost late, Qin Fan breathed a long sigh of relief and stood in the team of the first group of young participants.

I thought that the competition would start soon, but I never thought that when the staff found Qin Fan during the day, they hurriedly ran over and reminded in a whisper: "Shaoxia, your position is over there!" ”

"Huh? How do you still divide the position? ”

Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and asked out loud to the staff.

"You were introduced by Mr. Yanagi, so you were able to enter the main competition directly. And these are all participants who have signed up alone, and they must participate in the play-in round. ”

Knowing the reason, Qin Fan unconsciously twitched the corners of his eyes.

Feel that you have worked so hard to come over, but in fact, it is just to watch other people play?

Of course, not having to participate in the play-in tournament saved him a lot of trouble. Therefore, Qin Fan was still very grateful to the old man surnamed Liu who he saw at noon.

The Play-In format is simple, with more than 300 young players competing in 10 different rings.

There is no need to draw lots, anyone can get on.

Those who win will continue to defend until they win five games in a row to advance to the main event.

It may seem like a free and not very difficult rule, but there is also an element of luck in it.

A young man who is born with a high realm may also be beaten by a genius of the same realm in the first five rounds.

And young people with weak realms may also be lucky enough to meet five weaker ones in a row and directly advance.

In short, this play-in format is still cruel when you think about it.

But for the kind of young players who are quite confident, they don't have that doubt at all.

Qin Fan looked around, and finally went to the second group of players to watch the game.

There are a total of 50 chairs, which also represent a total of 50 young players who will go directly to the main event.

Qin Fan didn't think about it so much, and saw that there was an empty chair near the center in the first row, so he sat down.

It's okay not to sit down, and countless suspicious eyes suddenly cast around him.

In this regard, Qin Fan got up in confusion and looked at the front and back of the chair. Seeing that there were no markers, he sat down again.

"Brother, you're new here, aren't you? You've sat in a position you shouldn't be sitting, so I'd better get up quickly! ”

Suddenly, someone behind Qin Fan kindly reminded.

When he turned around and looked around, he saw that it was a handsome young man of about twenty-two or three years old.

Through the sharp sword held in his right hand, Qin Fan could guess that this son should also be a sword cultivator.

"I just got up and looked, and there was no mark on the chair."

"It's not a question of whether it's marked or not, it's that the chair you're sitting in and the three around you have already been selected."

"Guilty?" Qin Fan smiled faintly, his heart actually has an inner determination for this thing?

He actually didn't care at all, but he also thanked the handsome young man for his kind reminder, so he replied with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Dao, for the reminder." ”

When the handsome young man saw that Qin Fan didn't listen, he was a little anxious.

Unexpectedly, a good-looking woman in a red dress next to her pouted and complained: "What kind of person, kind as a donkey's liver and lungs!" ”

As he spoke, he made a grimace at Qin Fan, but was directly stopped by the handsome young man.

"Sister, others also have the power of others. We just have to do what we have to do and don't get angry about it. ”

If you look closely, the appearance of the handsome young man and the woman in the red dress is very similar.

This is enough to prove that between the two, it should be a brother and sister relationship.
